Itinerary description

Interesting trail in the forest.
Had to cross some fences, streams and private land.
Carlos (horses) showed me two very big trees on his property.
Bring lots of water. 2L was not enough.
Not difficult except for some steeper hills. Walked in open toe sandals in dry season (February).
